As a special feature, The Christian Women's Club invited the UMW Resale Shop to model clothing at its April 3rd luncheon held at the Old Town Banquet Center. The 12 models, who are current Shop volunteers and/or UMW board members, selected clothing and accessories for the plentiful spring inventory currently available. Shop co-founder Bonnie O'Brien, gave a brief history how The Shop began 23 years ago and Shop Manger Kathi Thompson, acted as emcee giving descriptions of each model's outfit.

Book Discussion
Our discussion last week on the book about the Women of the Settlement House Movement was well attended. If you want to learn more about the strong women of the United Methodist Women, check out this book from the UMW book shelf. We can only imagine what there lives were like and the strength and courage the showed.
We had visitors from Christ UMC in Gary, Rev. Katurah Johnson and Karen Bryant.
Christ UMC own the property that the Stewart House sat on and is now a Urban Farm and Community Garden. To hear more about this attend the Maundy Thursday Breakfast where Rev. Katurah Johnson will be speaking more about it.
Our next book discussion with be in August, so you will have plenty of time to read An Invisible Thread by Laura Schroff
